After the diplomatic crisis... France and Algeria are restoring cooperation between the two countries.

After eight months of an unprecedented diplomatic crisis, French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian announced that France and Algeria have agreed to resume cooperation in all sectors, following a day of constructive talks aimed at restarting dialogue after months of disputes. Le Drian said in a statement on Sunday, after two and a half hours of talks, "We are returning to normal, and let us repeat the words of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, the curtain has been lifted." It is worth mentioning that the bilateral relations between Algeria and France deteriorated, with tensions escalating due to the arrest of Boualem Sansal over statements he made to the right-wing French media outlet "Frontier," which the Algerian judiciary deemed as a threat to the country's territorial integrity. The repatriation of Algerians who faced deportation orders from French territory also contributed to increasing tensions. The crisis peaked after an attack in the city of Millau in eastern France on February 22, resulting in the death of one person, committed by an Algerian whom Algeria refused to repatriate following a deportation order against him.
